For the second card, I played with different colors of Perfect Pearls mixed with water. I first white embossed the Hero Arts Envelope Pattern on a piece of white cardstock. Then I sprayed 3 different Perfect Pearl-colored water, using Perfect Bronze, Forever Green and Sunflower Sparkle. I really love the shimmer! After the piece had dried, I used an EK leaf punch. I wanted to keep the rest of the card very simple so the leaves could take center stage.
Here's another photo, taken inside with a flash, to show more of the shimmer.
Thanks for stopping by! The weather is still amazing. Suppose to be 86 degrees today and 88 tomorrow! Come on Summer. . .keep hangin' in there! Have a great Saturday, everyone! :)

These are beautiful Barb! Love the little acorns you stamped all over the notecard! And I adore those sparkly leaves, so beautiful! It's beautiful here at the moment too, but I hear that the opressive heat and humidity will be back next week!
You have been so creative, Barb! Love the first window card--so cute! The shiny leaves in the 2nd card are beautiful! Thanks for sharing how you did it!! Enjoy the fine weather!
How precious are these little pilgrims?? :) Such a cute window card! And the shimmery leaves on the second- m-m- good!!

Hi Barb, beautiful cards on display display. The shimmery leaves are quite spectacular. How big are they? Love where you photographed the leaf card too, with the trees in the background. Have a lovely weekend.

adorable window cards, barb!
Wow, Barb, I love BOTH window cards! Those little pilgrims are so CUTE and I love the embossed leaves on the second card. Hard to think about fall when it is in the high 80's, isn't it?!
I love them both Barb!
and I think FALL suits your style ;-))
Both of these are absolutely adorable Barb!! Some time soon it will start to cool down and actually feel like fall here :)
Both cards are beautiful. Love the second one especially those shimmery leaves and the highlight on the sentiment is perfect on the window!
Windows into your creativeness Barb! Love each design. Thanks for the extra photo of the leaves. They really sparkle and shine!
Your first card is so adorable! And your 2nd card is a shimmery beauty! Wow, gorgeous!
It's in the 80s here today too! Yay! Love this summer weather. :)
Great window cards, Barb! I especially love the peeking pilgram--so cute! The glimmery leaves are so gorgeous, too!
Such a cute first card and love the shimmer on those leaves for your second card Barb! Nice job on your window cards ;-)

Oh this is super. I haven't ever tried one of these window cards before. This is so cute with that sweet little couple. Love the fall colours and stamping here.
Hi Barb, I love both of these cards. Your first card is adorable and I love that stamp set (I have the set, but haven't used it in awhile.) Your card with the leaves is gorgeous. Love the shine and the color. Great job.
I am glad that you liked the card that I sent you and I hope that you are feeling better. Take care and God bless. Hugs
Beautiful autumn cards, Barb! Love the tiny little pilgrim stamps, I remember that set, so adorable! I'm glad you are feeling better my friend and hope you will be fully recovered by Scrapfest time!
Fantastic autumnal cards. The leaves are pretty with the glimmer. Love the little pilgrims and how you have her peeking out the window.
Two fabulously Fall cards!! The pilgrims are darling but I LOVE the technique on the leaves! So beautiful!
